Many Australians celebrate Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival or the Lunar New Year. It marks the first day of the New Year in the Chinese calendar.
What do people do?
Like in many countries around the world, Chinese New Year celebrations in Australia include the following events and activities:
Street festivals featuring arts, entertainment and children’s activities.
Chinese New Year markets showcasing arts, crafts and food stalls.
Dancing, music and people wearing colorful costumes to welcome the Chinese New Year.
